Bill George, Harvard Professor and former chairman and
CEO Medtronic
Last week I served as faculty chair for
Harvard Business School's new
executive course, "Authentic
Leadership Development
" Sixty-four executives from 60 global
companies spent five intense days
honing their leadership.
Here's the catch: They concentrated
almost entirely on leading themselves,
not others …

3. We want to make a difference, not just
have a job
Millenials …
 Want businesses to focus more on people,
products, and purpose—and less on profits
 Seek employers with similar values (7 in 10
believe their personal values are shared by the
organizations for which they work)
 44%, if given the choice, would like to leave their
current employers in the next two years

4. Sharing resources is more cool than being
‘employed’
 The desire for autonomy is strongest in China,
especially among young people, indicating a
generational shift towards greater freedom,
entrepreneurship, and specialist skills in this rapidly
evolving economy

 By 2020, 40% of US workforce will be independent
workers
Bureau of labor Statistics
Employee Engagement

20
Social media and mobile apps are re-defining
employee communication and engagement
 Today, about 2.5 billion people are
registered to use at least one messaging
app
 By 2018, that number is expected to be 3.6
billion, 90% of the world's Internet-enabled
population
 Wechat contains 10M third party apps and
has 549M MAU (Monthly Active Users)

Employee Engagement
5. Who wants email? Connect on Wechat
or Whatsapp …

21
‘Thinking business’ more than being ‘Business
Partner’ will define success in the HR role
THE HR ROLE
 Building the employer brand
 Delivering solutions to organizational ‘pains’,
as much as well-being & self-development of
the employee
 Recognizing risks, recruiting & developing
talents with measurable business
performance (not HR KPI)
6. HR is a business solution!

22
 HR outsourcing is growing from US$1.8 billion in
2012 to more than US$4.2 billion in 2017
 MNC HR professionals are slowly shifting their
careers into local companies. Influencing
them, China can be the largest emerging
market for HRO over the next 5 years. In ten
years, recruitment process outsourcing could
generate $1 billion a year.

learning and leadership development

8. We like 18 min mobile customized
learning
 Millenial’s attention span is about 18 mins
(the length of a TED talk)
